    Smile Network Traffic Monitor

    Hi,

    I've been looking into developing a network traffic monitor for windows just for learning purposes, i found some old threads in the forum but i didnt find them very helpful. I've been learning windows socket programming and have created a handful of simple server/ client apps. I was wondering what I should start looking at next (API, tutorials etc), so i can get to work on the traffic monitor. Any help would be great.

    Thanks in advance.

    Rob.

    you can go to winpcap site and take a look at several sample codes...

    or download wireshark source code and try to understand the whole working application
